unexpected encounters.

There are several great reasons for children to learn a second language. Learning another language can help a child to think faster, and help the students to develop effective problem-solving skills.

Besides the workplace benefits a child will experience in adulthood, learning Japanese can impact a child in a number of positive ways. So as you consider the best language-learning path for your child, here are three fantastic reasons for your son or daughter to learn Japanese.

Deeper Level of Understanding (of English)

Students actually gain a better grasp on English grammar when they learn a second language. This is especially true for Japanese students, because the language is drastically different from English.

In Japanese syntax, the main verb is always the last word in the sentence. After learning this, students realize, often for the first time, that in English, the verb appears immediately after the subject.

This is just one example of how learning Japanese can help a student gain a deeper understanding of his or her native language.

Makes you understand Japanese culture

The Japanese culture is unique. It’s a combination of traditional and modern practices. Typically, the social conducts are not something you will see in the West. Their cultural traditions are ingrained in the people, young and old, and these traditions dictate the way they react, interact and behave. These are also manifested in the way they write, read, hear and talk. The younger generation could exhibit very modern behaviours, talk and dress differently but they still follow traditions their elders have taught them.

Understanding the Japanese language will open your eyes to Japanese history, martial arts, entertainment, culture and fashion.

Makes you appreciate your own culture and language

Learning Japanese will help you to appreciate your own culture as well as your own language because it improves your communication and cognitive skills. Accessing a culture that is very different from yours will heighten your awareness that cultures and languages vary.

Improves your skills in studying your other academic lessons As a student, learning Japanese helps you gain broader perspectives, higher thinking skills and new learning strategies that you can apply to your other academic subjects.

Learning Japanese isn’t just beneficial to students academically and economically, but also on an individual level. It opens a child’s mind to a new culture, helps a child learn to express him or herself, and encourages a child to celebrate the differences in others.

Learning Japanese is a great choice for any child’s future; plus, learning about different aspects of Japanese culture like manga and anime can be a lot of fun! Japanese created some of the most globally successful characters like Hello Kitty, Doraemon, Mario, Sailor Moon, Goku, Pikachu, Dragon Ball Z, Astro Boy, which will attract the pupils to learn the language with more fun.
